Oh right on! Somehow did not know or had forgotten that you were nearby. I'm in DC but up in Baltimore a lot because my GF lives there (Fells Point, although she's about to move to Canton). I sprained my ankle right at the beginning of the first season I'd have played men's club down here (2008) and then in subsequent years, as I got more into trying to dunk, I preferred a low commitment team. So I went mixed and uncompetitive -- we made regionals but were never a nationals contender. Ended up spraining my ankle again and after that said fuck it and retired from ultimate. I was plugged into the DC ultimate scene for a couple of years there but I've dropped off entirely. Hard to believe how long it's been, tbh.

LMK if you're down to train/throw around as it gets warmer. I'm going to add some intervals and sprinting/bounding back in and I'm in Baltimore every other weekend or so. There will be rust.

Good luck with your tryouts! Is there a reason you're not trying out for Truck Stop? Or Philly AMP?

Quick search on PubMed doesn't actually turn up that much.

Effects of in-season short-term plyometric training program on sprint and jump performance of young male track athletes. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25647644

Acute potentiating effect of depth jumps on sprint performance. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23799423

This abstract seems to indicate that power and stretching training increase depth jump height and also ground contact time during depth jumps, i.e., those things are correlated. Interesting. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11880813

i think it's chrondomalacia patella, but really all that means is "the cartillage behind the patella hurts because something is wrong." anyway gonna focus on quad activation and just hope it passes like most of the aches and pains i've had over the years. meantime i will soldier on.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: hamstrings and glutes a little
ACHES/INJURIES: intestines (something i ate for lunch i think); ankle and thumb not fully healed; right knee fine today
MENTAL STATE: good

- warm up

- DLRVJ x a few
very unexplosive, clearly affected by soreness and gut business

- squat 295 x 3,3,3

- superset x 3
-- assisted natural GHR x 10
-- inverted row x 10,10,21(F)
-- pistol +10 x 5; +7.5 x 5,5
-- dip x 10
reducing weight on pistols makes them harder

- stretch

not a horrible workout given the intestinal distress. no diarrhea or nausea, just feel wack.

huh. quick pubmed review showed a couple of small studies with modest support or neutral (i.e. null) results. at the very least it looks like it won't hurt you.
